Posted on April 29, 2013 by

mdeasrh2 Posted in Bookmarks, Course Reader, Diigo

Highlights and Sticky Notes:

educators have been trying to narrow the chasm between research and practice. Part of the challenge is that research that is detached from practice “may not account for the influence of contexts, the emergent and complex nature of outcomes, and the incompleteness of knowledge about which factors are relevant for prediction” (DBRC, 2003).

The need to address theoretical questions about the nature of learning in context

The need for approaches to the study of learning phenomena in the real world situations rather than the laboratory

Cognitivism | Learning Theories

Posted on April 29, 2013 by

mdeasrh2 Posted in Bookmarks, Course Reader, Diigo

Highlights and Sticky Notes:

So moves away from Behaviorism which considers external stimuli, and starts to look at what is going on in the mind to start with. – Roger Harrison

Mental processes such as thinking, memory, knowing, and problem-solving need to be explored

A response to behaviorism, people are not “programmed animals” that merely respond to environmental stimuli; people are rational beings that require active participation in order to learn, and whose actions are a consequence of thinking

this distinction is important – sees learners as having abilities to think and not just react/respond – Roger Harrison
